Episode 12: How About Lunch?
Our fun morning continued on with Honoka taking advantage of everyone being preoccupied with the skin lotion to surprise me by throwing her arms around my neck and demanding a piggyback ride.Ā
Weāve been able to quickly build up our friendships, and we have established links with each other through the studying help and by walking around the school together. If I had to list any problems it would be the languid feeling I get whenever I think about how weāll be in the full swing of our classes starting tomorrow.
But school is well worth it if it means I get to meet beautiful girls every day!
Currently we were welcoming in the lunch break. My eternal thanks to our homeroom teacher, (who I have yet to figure out whether she is straight-laced or laidback), for letting us out of our fourth period class early. Letās enjoy my lunch with a group of beautiful girls!
āHow about lunch?ā
Honoka walked back to us from the front of the classroom while pulling Yuzuriha along. I could probably learn something from her overbearing attitude that makes it seem natural that we would all eat together. Although, maybe this is how normal girls usually are? Iāve been by myself for a while, so my understanding of how women interact with each other is a little weakā¦ā¦..
With zero experience hanging out with friends, Iām still aiming for a yuri haremā¦ā¦..yeah, I know how foolish that sounds.
āI brought a bento, so should we eat in the cafeteria?ā
āI also have a bento, so I guess Iām matching with Saki. What are you two eating?ā
Liking Sakiās cafeteria plan, I alternated my gaze between Yuzuriha and Honoka.
āC-Cafeteriaā¦ā¦.ā
āBento~! No need to visit the school store for me~ā
I see, then weāre splendidly unified.
āThen letās head down to the cafeteria and eat together.ā
āU-Umā¦ā¦ā
There, we had the rare event of Yuzuriha speaking up.
āOh ho! Yuzurin has something to say!ā
āHow rare for Yuzu~ā
āNot that itās a problem of course. So, what is it?ā
In just a day Yuzurinās bashful image may have become a bit too definedā¦ā¦I think about following up with her later as I ask her opinion.
āIā¦..was thinkingā¦ā¦we could eat in the classroomā¦ā¦.ā
āOh? You want to stick to our desks~? Is it that? Ish thut!ā
āYour words are slurring together.ā
āO~Kay~Shon~ā
āWhat are you saying!?ā
Honoka raised both her thumbs in accordance with Sakiās tsukkomi. Is this the play fightingā¦ā¦.? How funā¦ā¦!?Ā
I glanced around the classroom as they were doing that and wondered what we should do.
āHmm, I donāt think weāll be able to move any desks.ā
āAyeā
Where did that accent come from Honokaā¦ā¦? Anyways, analyzing the situation for the best possible solutionā¦ā¦.would be a hassle, so letās just push our two desks together. Thatād be easiest.Ā
āTwo people to a desk with one person sitting in the front and the other one at the back. Weāll sit here at my and Sakiās desks since weāre in the back corner and shouldnāt get in anyoneās way.ā
āBooyah~ Then Iāll go grab some chairs!ā
Honoka quickly rushed back to her desk with Yuzuriha closely following behindā¦ā¦it kind of looks like Yuzurin is her pet. The way sheās lightly following behindā¦..is this the birth of Yuzurin Rabbit?
However after they both picked up their chairs, Honoka ran back here on her own.
āFirst place!ā
āNo, it wasnāt a race.ā
I threw in my comeback as Honoka planted her chair down on the ground. At least sheās having fun which is the most important thing.
After we settled down, the three of us watched as Yuzurin struggled carrying back her own chair.Ā
āSomebody should probably go help her~ā
āYouāre right.ā
Agreeing with Honoka I raised my voice and asked Yuzuriha if she was okay, but she responded that she was all right and even sped up a bit. We werenāt trying to rush you though.Ā \nIād take it back if I could.
āT-Thanks forā¦ā¦.ā
After swaying all the way here, Yuzuriha finally arrived with her chairā¦ā¦
But thenāā!
Crash!
The three of us almost jumped out of her skin as a loud bang echoed through the room.
āYuzurin!ā
āAre you okay Yuzu!?ā
āYuzu!ā
Honoka, me, and Saki all shouted out. The other girls still inside the classroom raised their own worried murmurs. What had happened? I think Yuzurihaās foot got caught in a deskās leg. She tripped and fell a single step away from our seats.
āOuchieā¦ā¦ā
Yuzuriha looked like she was about to cry. I quietly pulled away the chair that had gotten tangled in her legs after she dropped it.
āAre you hurt!? Is anything broken!?ā
After I pulled the chair away, Saki got down and began checking up on Yuzurihaās legs.Ā
āA few scrapesā¦ā¦but otherwise okay. Letās get you to the infirmary anyway just to be safe.ā
Yuzuriha groaned as she gently rubbed her sore legs, but she quickly nodded to Sakiās suggestion.
āIām part of the health committee, so Iāll take you!ā
Honoka bent over and lent Yuzuriha a shoulder to help her to her feet.
But then,Ā
āToo troublesome for you people to apologize, is it?ā
An icy rebuke fell from the girl quietly reading a book and sitting at the desk next to the fallen Yuzuriha.
